1. Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Scented Candle
Maison Francis Kurkdjian
We all know and love the iconic Baccarat Rouge 540 fragrance—a gorgeous blend of jasmine, saffron, cedarwood and ambergris—but experiencing it as a candle just might be a game-changer. The candle looks as luxe as it smells (though I swear the scent isn’t too overwhelming), so it'll double as chic decor in your giftee's home or office.
2. Dyson V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum
Dyson
I’d be lying if I said this isn’t at the top of my wish list, too. Now that I'm a grownup, I realize just how important it is to have a reliable vacuum cleaner, and we can all agree that Dyson is the gold standard that department. As Associate Editor Sydney Meister puts it, “Once you go Dyson, you don’t go back.” In Meister's honest review, she highlights this device as a standout that’s worth every penny. Not only is it cordless and intelligent, it also features a nifty laser light that detects and displays even the tiniest dust particles, so you can be sure you're getting the squeakiest clean ever. Let's just say the clean freak in your life will lose their mind if they found this under the tree.
3. Nespresso Vertuo Creatista Coffee Machine
Nespresso
When they’re struggling to make coffee in the morning with half-closed eyes, this Nespresso machine will have a cup of java in their hands in no time. Whether they're craving a cappuccino, espresso or uber creamy latte, this model does it all. While Nespresso offers single-serve machines, why not treat your loved one to a sleek, stainless-steel upgrade? Trust, it's sophisticated enough for even the toughest coffee snobs.
4. Jenni Kayne Cashmere Cocoon Cardigan
Jenni Kayne
You know I had to include some cozy cashmere on this list, and this Jenni Kayne cardigan delivers every time. Available in sizes up to 3X and in ten stunning colors, this slouchy knit is the perfect addition to anyone's winter wardrobe. Plus, it's a timeless piece that will last a lifetime.
5. Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Leather Cardholder
Bottega Veneta
For many, Bottega is a love language, and who wouldn't admire a special leather piece? Made in Italy, this cardholder features three card slots and the brand's signature Intrecciato weave. Oh, and if wood brown isn’t their vibe, it’s also available in both classic black and an adorable ribbon pink.
6. Brooklinen Luxe Sateen Move-In Bundle
Brooklinen
They deserve to sleep on only the finest bedding, so why not gift them this luxe sateen bundle from Brooklinen? This set includes one Hardcore Bundle (fitted sheet, flat sheet, duvet cover and four pillowcases), one comforter, two pillows, and even a free laundry detergent. While it's not not pricey, it's still practically a steal considering that everything included would retail at $604 when purchased separately.
Chanel
Even the bougiest individuals need hand cream, and this one from Chanel is the perfect size to fit into any handbag or briefcase for on-the-go moisture. Plus, the rich formula smells like flowers (in the best way), adding an extra touch of luxury to their self-care routine.
Apple
According to Apple, this is the thinnest Apple Watch yet, so even the most stylish person you know can effortlessly incorporate it into their everyday ensembles. With notable features like sleep tracking, heart rate notifications and 18 hours of battery life, they’ll want this waterproof companion on their wrist at all times.
9. Current Body LED Light Therapy Face Mask: Series 2
Current Body
I’ve implemented this FDA-approved technology into my skincare routine, and I can confirm it's worth the splurge. Red light LED masks are wonderful for anti-aging and skin renewal, and your giftee will adore the luxurious feeling of using one. This model covers the entire face and chin and only takes 10 minutes, bringing the spa experience right to your home. Giving the gift of good skin is truly unmatched, making this a thoughtful present for anyone who prioritizes skincare.

Samsung
If aesthetics are everything to them, surprise them with this exceptional flat-screen television. When turned off, it becomes a beautiful, frame-like display, showcasing your own photos or offering access to over 2,100 curated selections from world-class museums and art galleries.
11. Coach Leather Swing Zip Bag
Coach
Editorial Assistant Courtney Mason typically shies away from shoulder bags, but this Swing Zip bag from Coach is an exception. In a recent story, she noted that the straps are long enough so as not to be suffocating, while the ample pockets inside provide plenty of convenient storage. Since this bag tends to sell out quickly, I recommend adding it to your cart *immediately* if you're hoping to gift it to someone on your list.
Étoile
Introduce the beauty lover in your life to their new forever makeup bag. Crafted from vegan leather with a stain-proof lining, this ingenious pouch eliminates the need for multiple travel cases. It’s tall enough to keep bottles upright, preventing spills, and even features a pull-out mirror for ultimate convenience.
Riedel
Riedel glasses are always top-tier in my book, so you might want to consider adding one of its decanters to your collection. It can upgrade your tablescape and/or wine-sipping sesh, and it certainly makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves to host.
14. Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Grid Plaid Blanket
Barefoot Dreams
This large, cozy Barefoot Dreams blanket is ideal if your giftee loves a good movie night or much-needed weekend lounge session.

As a bonus, this chic, minimalist, grid-printed version of the throw is guaranteed to impress any interiors snob.

Beloved by celebrities like Zendaya and Billie Eilish, this lifetime-guaranteed aluminum luggage is sure to be highly appreciated by the jet-setters in your life. Not only does it have an exceptionally durable shell that's ready to withstand all the wear and tear of travel, the carry-on also features luxe, handmade leather handles, smooth-gliding wheels and TSA-friendly locks.
Those who know me know that Alo Yoga is always my go-to when it comes to workout gear, so it's also one of my go-tos when it comes to gifting—particularly if I'm planning to steal, ahem, borrow it later on. That said, this breathable, versatile men's zip-up makes the perfect present for any runner or athleisure-wearer you wish to treat this season. It's stretchy, moisture-wicking and stylish, and can go straight from the gym to brunch. And if you happen to grab it out of their closet, it should be perfectly comfy and oversized.
17. Tuckernuck Cashmere Blanket Scarf
Tuckernuck
Ensure your bestie/sister/mother stays toasty *and* trendy this season with this cashmere blanket scarf in a rich dark burgundy—aka the official "It" color of the fall and winter. It can be draped, wrapped and folded in any number of ways, plus it can double as a cozy travel blanket during long flights.

Augustinus Bader
I stumbled upon this brand years ago, and my life has been changed ever since. While Augustinus Bader comes with a price tag that might make you think twice, it’s one of the most luxurious skincare brands I’ve put on my face. It's hardly a surprise that these products practically have a cult following, which includes PureWow editors and readers alike. When you gift this set, you won’t have to choose between the brand’s many beloved products; it includes three best-selling formulas—including the famous Rich Cream—that visibly refresh your skin, leaving it toned, nourished and radiant.
20. Bario Neal - Customizable Birthstone Necklace

Who doesn’t value jewelry with a personalized touch? Consider this ethically sourced birthstone necklace, which can be tailored down to the setting, stone and even metal chain. Whether you’re gifting it to a Scorpio or a Virgo, it’s a stunning piece that everyone will love. Just note that different stones come at different price points.
Add to their sunglasses collection with the “It Girl” pick of the moment—these coveted Celine sunnies. I especially love that they're available in either a gold or silver frame, so they can easily match with whichever tone they favor more.
Patrón
Attention tequila lovers: it’s time to upgrade your silver. Beautifully packaged in a sleek glass bottle, Patron El Cielo is the perfect addition to any celebration (or bar cart). Crafted from the highest quality 100 percent Weber Blue Agave and made with only 100 percent additive-free ingredients, this spirit is sure to go down smoother than a silk scarf.

Each decadent gift set includes a tin of caviar, a mother of pearl spoon, a tin opener and a velvet bag. Just grab some potato chips and crème fraîche, and you’re all set!
